The country's per capita income has been higher than that of its peer countries, such as Fiji, with a GDP per capita of 6,825.46 in 2025, a similar value to Suriname's. However, the latest available data shows a decline from its peak, with a GDP per capita of 6,843.47 in 2025, ranking 105 globally. This decline may be attributed to various factors, including economic instability and fluctuations in global commodity prices, which have historically impacted Suriname's economy. As the global economy continues to evolve, Suriname's GDP per capita may be influenced by its ability to diversify its economy, develop its mining and agricultural sectors, and strengthen its trade relationships with key partners.
